How do I know when I like someone? Have I forgotten what I crush feels like? I’ve known him since 2nd grade…9 years later and we’re still very good friends. I eat lunch with him (and a few others) every day. I talk with him every day. I enjoy talking to him. But do I like him? When he mentioned he liked the fruit they served in the cafeteria, I always got an extra one to give to him. Is that what friends do?
My friends have been teasing me about liking him. I don’t mind it. But now I’m questioning myself. Do I like him? I mean…I had a crush on him back in 4th grade. And 6th grade. He liked me in 5th. But we never knew about it until it was too late. How did I feel about him back then? Do I feel the same way? Honestly, I’m not sure. I don’t remember what having a crush feels like. Is this it?
If I’m hesitating, does that mean I don’t like him? But my friends also tease me about liking another person. But him…I’m sure I don’t like. So why am I confused about him?
I want to be in a relationship. I do. I’ve never been in one and I feel like I’m ready to experience it. Am I confusing my desperation for a relationship for feelings for him? But I can imagine myself dating him. I can imagine holding hands with him. I can imagine laying my head on his shoulder. I can imagine just the two of us doing something fun. I can’t imagine that with my other friend. Do I like him?
I don’t feel butterflies around him. My heart doesn’t beat rapidly when I think about him. I don’t feel shy or nervous around him. Does that mean I don’t have a crush on him? Or does that mean I forgot what a crush feels like?

Help..?
My dad will never accept me. I know that. The real question though is if I can accept myself. I know it’s wrong and I’m aware it’s wrong, but no matter ho...

Loneliness is slowly destroying me
I feel alone since I was born, I was bullied at school and mentally abused at home. The feeling that I am not worthy of being loved has never left me and I don'...
It can happen at any time and feel like anything. I knew a guy since 14 and didn’t like him until we were 21
ReplyAs I've commented to other ladies - some guys are so reserved or shy they just can't seem to find the courage to make "the move". In my humble experience, perhaps put yourself in a situation where you can reach for his hand, I don't, maybe talking about something sad, and then look him in his eyes deeply and see if he responds. Otherwise, if you figure out that you like him and are tired of him not making a move, then ask him out to a movie date and see how things go. Best of luck.
Courtesy notice: the following includes a reference to a book that contains writings over 2000 years old which are mostly parables about human nature, both vile human nature as well as moral human nature, parables that are meant to teach us to learn and grow, including the teachings of Christ Jesus. No religion required, and better yet: no public displays of devotion required, although the former and latter are admirable if practiced freely out of one's own free will and without the threat of being beheaded. Some bullies will label this "trolling", so "change the channel" now if of no interest to you.
1 Thessalonians 5:11
Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.
Mark 12:28-31
And Christ Jesus said the 2 greatest commandments are:
Love God first and foremost.
Love your fellow-being as you love yourself.
From following or not following these, all good or evil cascades, respectively.
Love...that powerful, invisible, intangible force that cannot be denied; even atheists live and die by it.
Luke 2:29-32
Sovereign Lord, as you have promised, you may now dismiss your servant in peace. For my eyes have seen your salvation, which you have prepared in the sight of all nations. A light for revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of your people Israel.
Mary, Mother of Christ, intercede for us with your prayers, now, and always.
And after our worst deeds - never forget God forgives us when we repent through Christ Jesus, when we change our minds and our actions.
